What makes this sparkling wine unique is the addition of up to 20% of \u003cstrong\u003eVecchio Samperi\u003c\/strong\u003e, Marco De Bartoli's iconic oxidative wine, which gives depth and aromatic complexity. Aging then continues in the bottle for at least 30 months on the lees, a period that gives creaminess and evolved notes.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\nVisually, the \u003cstrong\u003eTerzavia Cuvée VS\u003c\/strong\u003e presents a brilliant golden yellow color with amber reflections.
